This is a fair balance in a good home

- I want my son to play football/hockey/soccer/la crosse, says the father adamantly.

The mother finds a good team and coach, fits practice around her already tight schedule and drives to and from training several times a week. She buys the gear, washes it after practice, makes sure it's all packed for next time and liaises with other mothers about newsletters, carpooling, snacks and fund-raising.

The father tries to fit at least some of the matches around golf practice at weekends.
